I pretty much can't believe this, but the time has come to renew my visa or get kicked back across the Atlantic. The time has passed both quickly and slowly. I feel like after fifteen months (!) I am starting to get the hang of this and am not quite ready to pack up and go. So I have an appointment in the morning at the Foreign Office to get a new visa. All the necessary documents I need are signed, stamped, and ready to go. I have renewed my health insurance. I have the cash for the renewal feel. And I feel terrified that they won't let me stay. Silly, I know. I had the same feeling last year with my first visa and I think I was through in thirty minutes.
I would love something from you though. Any happy/goodluck thoughts, well wishes, crossed fingers, toes, and other limbs all in the hopes that I can stay here would be greatly appreciated in the next 24 hours. And for those friends and family that keep asking me, "will you just come home already?" you can keep on saying and thinking that..... after Friday afternoon arrives. Until then, please send only good European ju-ju this way. I promise, if I am allowed to stay I will come home in the next six months to visit. And there is always space for you at my place if you miss me all that much. :)

My legs are crossed, but only because I have to pee so bad and am trying to hold it while I write this. In any case, consider any contortions of the body on my part as wishing you luck!
I know that for me, Lynzee & Jus we don't want you to come home until you want to come home so I'm sending all the positive energy I can come up with your way.

As much as I want you to come home, I will send good luck your way as long as you want to stay! Miss you!!
I'm seeing this a bit late, but I hope everything went well. :)
I am excited for you to get your VISA renewed. Happy to see you in the next 6 months stateside and then again later in Europe...AMEN!
So, how did it go?
